Bath I had a great night out with Stu and his brother Ryan last night. Stu had promised me a steak dinner when I made it in to Bath and as I could hobble along a bit better after a day of not walking we went a little further afield than just round...

Bath to Old Sodbury L ast night was a little bit more of a subdued affair after the night before. Yes, Stu and I went out but it was just round the corner for a very nice pizza - my shout to say thanks for being so great and letting me crash a...

Old Sodbury to Cam F [ortunately the torrential rain from yesterday evening had dissipated and this morning was a clear, fresh - almost cold - morning, just right for walking. After a good breakfast I was on back on the Cotswold Way at 8:35am and...

Cam to Painswick K nowing that I had a shorter distance to cover today I clearly decided subconsciously to take an easier start to the morning. I struggled to get out of bed and even then everything seemed to take twice as long to sort out and...

Painswick to Gloucester P ainswick is definitely somewhere I'd like to visit again. The little stroll/hobble round last night didn't really do the little place justice so I'd like to go back again some time. And the hotel, well, it was fantastic!...

Worcester to Bewdley A nother day, another walk, and to be honest I wasn't looking forward to this one. I've not enjoyed the Severn Way that much over the last couple of days and the thought of having a similar walk today was not a pleasant one....

Bewdley to Wolverhampton A fter posting yesterday's blog update, while watching trash TV, I remembered something from yesterday that I'd omitted from the update that is worthy of mention. Halfway through the final few miles to Bewdley I was walking...

Wolverhampton W hat an absolutely great night I had last night! Okay I'll admit it, I was slightly worse for wear because of it this morning but...face...bovered?! It felt like it'd been so long since I sat and had more than just a pint or two and...

Wolverhampton to Penkridge S orting out the new route to Penkridge last night I didn't really spend a lot of time looking for an interesting or scenic route, just a simple, no hassle, straight forward walk, especially seeing as the temperature was...
